1 Identification of Migratory Dragonflies Greg Lasley,
2 Challenges Fast-moving May be several species Hard to see markings
3 Main annual migrants in North America: What species migrate? Common Green Darner Black Saddlebags Spot-Winged Glider Wandering Glider Variegated Meadowhawk Not a dragonfly Peter Burke
